**Note:** `--privileged` is required for Docker-in-Docker to function properly, but it should be used with care as it provides full access to the host environment, as explained [in the relevant section of the Docker documentation](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/run/#runtime-privilege-and-linux-capabilities).

By default, the `dind` variants of this image add `--host=tcp://0.0.0.0:2375` (on top of the explicit default of `--host=unix:///var/run/docker.sock`) in order to allow external containers to access `dockerd` appropriately (as the following examples illustrate). If you use `--network=host` or other methods of sharing network namespaces (such as Kubernetes pods, for example), this might be a security issue. To disable this image behavior, simply override the container command or entrypoint to run `dockerd` directly (`... docker:dind dockerd ...` or `... --entrypoint dockerd docker:dind ...`).
**Warning:** by default, the `dind` variants of this image add `--host=tcp://0.0.0.0:2375` (on top of the explicit default of `--host=unix:///var/run/docker.sock`) in order to allow other containers to access `dockerd` (as the following examples illustrate). If you use `--network=host`, shared network namespaces (as in Kubernetes pods), or otherwise have network access to the container (including containers started within the `dind` instance via their gateway interface), this is a potential security issue (which can lead to access to the host system, for example). To disable this image behavior, simply override the container command or entrypoint to run `dockerd` directly (`... docker:dind dockerd ...` or `... --entrypoint dockerd docker:dind ...`). It is recommended to implement TLS (`... docker:dind dockerd --host tcp://0.0.0.0:2376 --tlsverify ...`) if network access to the `dind` instance is required.
